Les Furfurieux was established in 2023 by a French non-profit and draws 241 attendees to Metz, France. It serves as the primary furry convention for the Grand-Est region.
The convention returns to Metz from May 7-10, 2026 with a nostalgic "Y2K / Annees 2000" theme.
Attendees gather at the 4-star Hotel Metz Technopole - Best Western Plus, situated on the edge of an 18-hole golf course and featuring a seasonal outdoor pool. The venue supports the convention's focus on community building, panels, and music events in a comfortable social setting.
Les Furfurieux fills a geographical gap, offering furries in eastern France, Luxembourg, and western Germany an accessible regional convention. TGV train connections from Paris and Strasbourg put the venue within practical reach for a weekend trip.
